FDA Announces Extension of Enforcement Discretion Related to Morphine Solution
Published by Paul Pellerito April 13th, 2009 in Drug Shortages.FDA remains committed to taking enforcement actions against unapproved drugs in an effort to ensure that drugs used by patients are safe and effective, while at the same time ensuring that such actions do not impose an undue burden on patients. Currently, there are no approved morphine sulfate oral solution 20 mg/ml products being marketed in the U.S. FDA has heard from the pain management community that the impending market removal of unapproved morphine sulfate oral solution 20 mg/ml products announced in the Warning Letters would impose unacceptable hardship on palliative care patients, their families and caregivers. In light of this information, FDA will extend the enforcement discretion set forth in the Warning Letters to ensure that palliative care patients have access to morphine sulfate oral solution 20 mg/ml. The period of enforcement discretion will be extended until 180 days after any firm receives approval for a morphine sulfate oral solution 20 mg/ml product or if FDA determines that alternative medications become available for the palliative care patient.

Southwest Michigan Pharmacists Association recognized with Local Association Achievement Award
Published by Paul Pellerito March 1st, 2009 in General and ACE.
At its 2009 session, the House of Delegates presented the Southwest Michigan Pharmacists Association with its Local Association Achievement award. SWMPA joined the Capital Area, Jackson Area, North Michigan, Wayne County, and Western Michigan pharmacist associations, who were also given this award. Continuing Education & Program Director William Urfer accepted the award on behalf of the association.
SWMPA would like to thank the Michigan Pharmacists Association, all MPA members, all of our continuing education sponsors, and especially those MPA members who participate in our local activities. Your support, along with all members of the MPA, make our organization possible.
SWMPA would also like to take this time to again ask for your participation in the Michigan Pharmacists Association. Not only is this a great way to connect with your peers and colleagues in the profession, your membership also makes you a true part of our organization and ensures that SWMPA remains a strong, active chapter of the MPA and within our community.
Thank you all very much.
